1. Left tackle Eugene Monroe

Amy Davis, Baltimore Sun

Monroe stabilized the left tackle position after the Ravens acquired him through a trade with the Jacksonville Jaguars midway through the 2013 season. Now, with both Monroe and right tackle Michael Oher set to become free agents, left tackle is both a premium position and one of need. The Ravens might be able to draft a talented tackle prospect with their first-round pick, but if Monroe wants to stick around -- and indications are that he does -- the Ravens should make him the priority. Protecting quarterback Joe Flacco is paramount and Monroe is already an above-average left tackle.
